Hi, I am Preston Shipman

Hey there! My name is Preston Shipman and I’m an aspiring software developer. I'm originally from Murrieta, California, but I moved to Yorba Linda in Orange County in the summer of 2014. Here I attended Yorba Linda High School, where I took a class on mobile app development and learned Jquery Mobile, JavaScript, CSS, and HTML. This was my gateway into software development, and ever since then I’ve known I wanted to be a developer. I worked various jobs after high school, and while I enjoyed my time in them I knew I had to keep my focus on software.

This led me to finding freeCodeCamp, which helped me get back into programming after my hiatus. I finished the Web Development section of freeCodeCamp, but when the more advanced topics came I knew I needed to get help and jump all in. This led me to attending LearningFuze. LearningFuze Coding Bootcamp allowed me to learn so much more than I could have on my own, thanks to the teachers there who could explain technologies to me in a way I could understand. They taught me many languages such as JavaScript, Jquery, React.js, and Node.JS. Now with many new skills under my belt I am ready to be a Junior Developer!
